    Now, it runs very well.

    Thanks for this howto.

    PS: I use the theme GoboGrub.
    When I open http://dev.gentoo.org/~spyderous/splash/gobo/

    I'm getting 404 Not found error...
    Go for ogg vorbis.

    I know there's a way to compile gfxboot message files, and this aint it.
    I borrowed from http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php...4&postcount=15
    and did some editing. I'm sure others can do better but this works for me. If you want you can copy this message.new.tar.gz , extract it and sudo cp
    into /boot/grub directory and edit menu.lst accordingly. Just please back up menu.lst first.

    uhh shouldnt it be >> if you want to append, rather than > which would just overwrite the whole file?

    I followed the steps here http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php...4&postcount=15
    and just changed some of the images from the suse message.
    There is an ubuntu package -see http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php...4&postcount=22
    but I don't know how to use it.
